Leverage Flask-SQLAlchemy with Celery

Last update: Feb 3, 2015

Flask-SQLAlchemy has some nice built-ins (e.g. accessing query directly on classes). To continue leveraging these nicities while still inside of a Celery worker, we need to make sure we setup/teardown in a similar fashion to Flask-SQLAlchemy does on Flask.

Setup

Flask-SQLAlchemy uses create_scoped_session at startup which avoids any setup on a per-request basis.

https://github.com/mitsuhiko/flask-sqlalchemy/blob/2.0/flask_sqlalchemy/__init__.py#L668

This means Celery can piggyback off of this initialization.

a simple git branching model

a simple git branching model (written in 2013)

This is a very simple git workflow. It (and variants) is in use by many people. I settled on it after using it very effectively at Athena. GitHub does something similar; Zach Holman mentioned it in this talk.

Update: Woah, thanks for all the attention. Didn't expect this simple rant to get popular.
